chapter 14 Punishment Hall Axel Cao of Xingtang

"Why are you still standing there?" Noah stared at Oliver and said slowly.
Oliver had already been frightened out of his wits. Hearing Noah's words, he suddenly woke up.
He didn't dare to say a word more, crawling and kneeling in front of Emma.
"Ms. Emma, I was wrong. You are a magnanimous person, please don't lower yourself to my level..." Oliver said with a pleading tone.
He looked so pitiful, as pitiful as could be.
He felt so wronged in his heart.
He thought that with Seth here, no one could do anything to him.
But he didn't expect that Seth would be so easily subdued by Noah in front of him.
Facing Oliver's apology, Emma dared not agree.
She knew that Oliver was only apologizing under the pressure from Noah, not sincerely apologizing.
At this moment, Noah also sheathed the sword that had been against Seth's throat, and slowly turned around to walk towards Emma.
Seth let out a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Then, his gaze became resentful once again.
"Noah, perhaps you don't know yet, but just yesterday, Liam completely fused with your Sword Bone, forging the Sword King Body. His cultivation has also reached the Second Stage of the Spirit Wheel Realm. In the battle half a month later, you will surely die by his hands."
Seth knew he was no match for Noah, so he didn't dare to make a move at this time.
"Sword Bone?"
Noah's footsteps paused, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
Liam's Sword Bone originally belonged to him.
Now, Liam had completely fused with the Sword Bone.
This meant that even if he killed Liam, he would have no chance to reclaim the Sword Bone.
"Mind your own business. It's not your turn to care about my affairs!" Noah didn't turn around, only coldly responded to Seth.
Upon hearing this, Seth burst into laughter again. "When I arrived just now, I happened to see Liam heading towards the Scripture Repository. He must be going to select a set of Earth Rank Martial Technique that can only be practiced by Spirit Wheel Realm martial artists."
"With Liam's martial talent, he will easily master a set of Earth Rank martial arts within half a month."
"I can almost foresee now, how miserably you will lose half a month later!"
"I just don't know if at that time, Liam will kill you directly, or make you suffer!"
He felt that he could regain some of the face he had just lost by provoking Noah like this.
Upon hearing these words, Noah grew somewhat impatient.
"If you can't control your mouth, I don't mind giving you a couple of slaps." Noah turned around and said calmly towards Seth.
His voice was extremely calm.
But upon hearing this, Seth immediately became obedient.
Although he was still full of resentment, he dared not say more.
He wanted to regain his dignity.
Yet Noah seemed determined to humiliate him.
If he were to be publicly slapped by Noah, that would truly be a complete loss of face.
Seeing that Seth had stopped talking, Noah turned around again and walked towards Emma, standing in front of Oliver.
"Mr. Noah, I have already apologized. Can you let me go now?"
Oliver looked up at Noah, but as soon as his gaze met Noah's cold eyes, he immediately lowered his head again.
"You have apologized, but what about the Spirit Gathering Pills you withheld before?"
Noah's expression was cold as he looked down at Oliver.
"I will go get them now!" Oliver immediately promised.
As he spoke, he was about to get up.
At this moment, Noah lifted his foot and stepped on Oliver's shoulder. "Kneel down and go!"
The crowd was shocked by Noah's firm attitude.
He made Oliver kneel down and fetch the Spirit Gathering Pills in front of so many people.
That was humiliating.
"Alright..." However, Oliver agreed very quickly.
He immediately obediently knelt down and crawled to the table in front of the medicine hall as Noah requested.
His dignity was long gone, so he didn't care about losing a little more.
After fetching several bottles of Spirit Gathering Pills, he crawled back to Emma in front of everyone's disdainful gazes.
"Here are the remaining eight Spirit Gathering Pills. Please check them, Ms. Emma."
Oliver crawled on the ground like a dog and handed a porcelain bottle to Emma.
"Eight pills? Is that enough?" Emma had just taken the porcelain bottle from Oliver when Noah coldly spoke up.
"Ah?"
Oliver was stunned, not understanding Noah's meaning.
"Fetch another forty pills. Twenty of them are mine, and the other twenty will be your contribution to compensate Emma as a gesture of apology." Noah explained matter-of-factly.
Now that his dantian was shattered and he couldn't gather spiritual energy, he had no use for Spirit Gathering Pills.
However, he was still an outer disciple of the Sword God Sect.
According to the rules, he could still receive twenty Spirit Gathering Pills every month.
Since he couldn't use them, there was nothing wrong with him giving these twenty pills to Emma as a gift.
As for the other twenty pills, Oliver would have to provide them.
Oliver had previously spoken disrespectfully to Emma and had also wet her clothes. It was not excessive for him to compensate with twenty Spirit Gathering Pills!
"Okay! Okay!" Oliver did not dare to hesitate.
Not only would he not have any objections to giving an extra forty Spirit Gathering Pills, but even if Noah asked for a hundred more, he wouldn't dare to say a word.
After all, to him, Spirit Gathering Pills were just a matter of quantity, and he could afford to give as many as needed.
He couldn't afford to offend Noah again over such a trivial matter.
"Noah, isn't this a bit inappropriate?" Emma hesitated as she watched Oliver hand over two more bottles.
She had only intended to reclaim her own portion.
Seeing Noah's actions, she suddenly worried that taking so many Spirit Gathering Pills might offend someone or lead to trouble.
"Just take it. If anything happens, I'll take responsibility," Noah gave Emma an affirming look.
"Really?"
Just as the words fell, a powerful and angry roar suddenly came from not far away.
Everyone's heart trembled at the sound, and they all turned their heads to look behind them.
A middle-aged man in a black robe, walking heavily with an air of anger, coming towards them.
"Master!" Upon seeing this man, Seth immediately went up to greet him.
"Dad!" Oliver stood up excitedly.
Without a doubt, the middle-aged man in the black robe was Oliver's father and Seth's master, Master Axel from the Punishment Hall.
"Kneel!"
As Oliver stood up, Noah pressed down on his shoulder with his palm.
With a forceful push, Noah once again pushed Oliver back to the ground, forcing him to continue kneeling.
"Noah, you bastard! I'll make sure you suffer!"
Axel's arrival undoubtedly gave Oliver enough confidence.
He was no longer as submissive and humble as before but roared with anger.
His father was an elder of the Punishment Hall, a strong True Essence Realm cultivator.
No matter how formidable Noah was, even if he could defeat Seth, could he still be a match for his father?
"Noah, you have some nerve. How dare you bully your fellow disciples and forcibly take the sect's resources!"
Seeing Noah humiliating him by forcibly press Oliver back to the ground after he had just stood up, Axel's anger surged even more.
His eyes stared at Noah with chilling intent, and he shouted like thunder.
